Right - but I plan on doing a CV style so I won't be matching angles I will be pointing my pinion up at the T-case so there essentially is no angular disparity between the pinion yoke angle and the driveshaft itself.

My question was how do I know I am within the "tolerance zone" of a CV shaft? How do I know I have rotated it enough or too far?

I guess I have been assuming there is no shaft between the T-case and pinion to know when you hit the right angle...Is this what I am missing? So use the stock shaft, set the angle, get new measurements for a new shaft?
